When you need precise metal removal in hardened materials, electrical discharge machining (EDM) is your most efficient process. At Arc we set our drilling machines to your specifications for the same, high-quality, high-tolerance results time after time.
Fast hole EDM drilling is 70 percent faster than conventional methods, regardless of metal type or hardness. Advantages include high accuracy and fine surface finishes for parts required by medical, aerospace, electronics, military, and manufacturing.
Sinker EDM technology is used on hardened materials and to produce precise, complex part details without stressing the materials. It’s just as it sounds, a custom-shaped electrode is lowered into material, removing particles and leaving behind the desired impression. Production sinker EDM services the aerospace, ground power and medical communities, EDM engraving needs as well as mold and insert construction.
Wire EDM technology is best used for projects with intricate tolerances and material stress limitations. It’s often used to drill through a material and for precision die work. Arc offers short and long product runs for applications such as aerospace and medical components.
PRODUCTION WIRE EDM AND ROBOTICS
To maintain quality and speed of service, Arc produces electrodes in-house using our CNC mills and grinders. Some of our EDM machines are paired with robots that enable us to run many hours unattended.
